From the PlanetXbox360.com featured preview (2012 EA Summer Showcase):
"Last year’s NHL 12 was a real champion on the ice, even without any other games to oppose it. But this year is shaping up to be even better with the forthcoming NHL 13. EA recently invited us down to its Summer Showcase event to give it a go. Right off the bat, players who are used to EA’s series will notice something significantly different within the few seconds of play. No, EA didn’t retweak the controls to the point that they’re broken. Instead, they’ve added a great new feature called True Performance Skating."
Adam Burton of Laser Lemming Writes "
Im in an abusive relationship with EA Sports
There.. I said it.
For some reason I didn’t really want to admit it to myself until now, like some abuse victim who still thinks they can change him for the better. I reassured myself with anything good that I could find and ignored the horror that lay before me, but no more. Today I’ve decided to give them an ultimatum. Change your ways or lose me forever."
I used to be a NHL2K guy and I'm so sad I have to get EA's game.
They're so lazy, I mean, how hard is it to get the in-game player faces right on more than like 20%.
The menus are pathetic and graphics are okay.
No wonder their NBA games are failing.
Anyways, the game is still fun, but it should be so much nicer.
GameInformer: "We try to recreate the biggest sports trades of the past seasons in NBA 2K13, NHL 13, and Madden NHL 13. Which, if any, series gets it right?"
It isn’t even a contest this week as EB Games completely dominates everybody else with their Game Days sale. Since there’s so many deals, we’ll just skip right ahead to the action.
So I can get a White 500GB PS3 with a yr subscription to PS+ and all the free games I can download($299.99). Plus, get a White Assassins Creed PS Vita with the game and memory card($249.99) and then get PSASBR which I can play on both systems ($39.99). Reg Price = $589.97...EB sale price = $449.98.
Thats not bad, saving a $140 and I can get reacquainted with PlayStation before PS4 launches....hmmmm
Game looks good, hope they made as many changes as the author implies... will be checking out the demo for sure!
This better be on Wii-U
